Really appreciate this- i teach a sacred songs and social justice class and I'll be sharing this with my students, thank you, Ezra!

just stumbled across your stuff recently through a recommendation of the rolling stone and i have to say: i really dig your style :D

Awesome song Ezra you're an inspiration :)

Respect, Ezra thanks for having the courage to write this. Great Job!

Why was this never released? Honestly ine of the very best protest songs ever written. This should be carved onto Mount Rushmore.

Lyrics:
Bedding Taylor Swift
Every night inside the Oculus Rift
After mister and the missus finish dinner and the dishes
And now the future's definition is so much higher than it was last year
It's like the images have all become real
And someone's living my life for me out in the mirror

No, can you believe how far we've come
In the New Age?
Freedom to have what you want
In the New Age we'll all be entertained
Rich or poor, the channels are all the same
You're a star now, baby, so dry your tears
You're just like them
Wake on up from the nightmare

Come on
Oh ho oh
Oh
Oh ho oh

No gods to rule us
No drugs to soothe us
No myths to prove stuff
No love to confuse us

Not bad for a race of demented monkeys
From a cave to a city to a permanent party

Come on
Oh ho oh
Oh
Oh ho oh

When the historians find us we'll be in our homes
Plugged into our hubs
Skin and bones
A frozen smile on every face
As the stories replay
This must have been a wonderful place

Total Entertainment Forever

LYRICS:

Like a pervert on a crowded bus the glare of love bears down on us Like a carcass left out in the heat this love is bursting out of me 

Disappointing diamonds are the rarest of them all
And a love that lasts forever really can’t be that special
Sure we know our roles
And how it’s supposed to go
Does everybody have to be the greatest story ever told? 

Like an oil tanker tipped at sea this love’s contaminated me
Like a constant twitching in my eye this love of ours will never die 

Disappointing diamonds are the rarest of them all
And the love that lasts forever really can’t be that special
Sure we know our roles
How it’s supposed to go
Does everybody have to be the greatest story ever told?

God's Favorite Customer
